It’s worth recalling that in December 2016, the Commissioner for Human Resources Science and Technology, H.E. Dr Martial De Paul Ikounga signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Secretary-General of the Association of African Universities (AAU), Professor Etienne Ehouan Ehile.
AAU is the voice of higher education in Africa and has been a lead agency in implementing the continental vision since its founding under the OAU. The African Union Agenda 2063 calls for an education and skills revolution to meet the human resource needs for actualising Africa’s social-economic development. As such, the African university occupies a strategic role in ensuring that our education systems are oriented towards promoting innovation, critical thinking, pan Africanism and entrepreneurial orientations while addressing Africa’s challenges and optimising on its opportunities.
The partnership between the AUC and the AAU over the last decade has witnessed the strengthening of the African higher education space through the promotion of intra-African academic mobility, harmonisation of qualifications for mutual recognition across the Member States; and promotion of a culture of continuous quality improvement through the AU’s African Quality Rating Mechanism.
The AAU has been able to mobilise African academia to appropriate the continental vision of Agenda 2063, and it has helped to build accountable leadership and quality in research and scholarship
GOAL: To increase engagements between the AAU and North America and the Diaspora
Objectives
• Mobilize funds for the advancement of Higher Education in Africa.
• Promote and develop relations between the African Academic Diaspora and African Higher Education Institutions (HEI).
• Promote sister university collaborations
• Promote and develop research and education networks among African Higher Education Institutions and their North American counterparts
• Promote corporate and non-profit America to support African Higher Education Institutions
• Sensitize potential development partners to the education needs of African HEIs
• Promote student and staff exchange
• Promote a role for Higher Education in US-Africa relations
• Develop and implement comprehensive international Initiatives for senior leadership at public research universities to facilitate seamless integration of international dimensions into the learning, discovery and engagement missions of our AAU institutions.
• Foster the development of globally competent students, internationally engaged faculty, and institutions capable of addressing global challenges.
• Identify critical issues, gather information, and create opportunities for AAU members to discuss challenges and share knowledge with their NA counterparts.
• Serve as the leading advocate for advancing the broad interests of the AAU in NA
• Support the development of innovative approaches and solutions to African Higher Education
With everyone fighting and pointing the finger at each other I find using my lense to speak is very theraputic to me.
I am fed up with it, its not fair on anyone. So i wonder if they'd go a day in each others shoes?

Secretary Rita Landgraf welcomed about 80 mental health professionals, advocates and consumers to an April 1 conference, "Understanding Loneliness." Secretary Landgraf said loneliness is increasing, but especially for vulnerable populations such as people with serious mental illness, seniors, and people with other disabilities.
"As humans, we need those meaningful social interactions that people who care about us or provide," Secretary Landgraf said.
A 2010 AARP study of adults found that 40% said that they had been lonely, a figure that was double the rate in the 1980s.
The conference, sponsored by DHSS' Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health, also included a consumer panel, experts on statistics and trends, and recommendations for reaching out to people with serious mental illness.

Latino Outreach and Understanding Division (LOUD),
SOMOS (We Are) is LOUD’s national multi-platform campaign, debuting in New York City, Los Angeles and Miami during National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15th – October 15th). SOMOS highlights the strength, courage, and determination of 3 individuals who all come from humble beginnings and limited resources, yet fought to live in their authenticity. Join Zoey Luna, Mark Travis Rivera, and Sergio C. Garcia, as they walk us through their journey of rejection, defeat, and discrimination.
It is our hope that these stories motivate and empower others to continue fighting to live in their truth

Understanding the changing media environment and its impact on our society and political climate is complex, requiring analysis from multiple viewpoints. On May 30-31 2014, a conference brought together scholars across fields including political economy, industrial organization, and economic theory to examine critical questions of how the media shapes our lives today.

Project: “Concrete circus”
Theme: Circle of life
Title: Understanding
Concrete Circus to me means the circle of life: how people live in buildings, use them and how they decay. The sculpture holds four parts of life: from birth, meaning being built; being old and sick; as being damaged and how the colour changes as we move towards death.
I used around 6-7 bags of clank clay to create this sculpture. This took me 1 week at college: about 25 hours. Scale 110 cm 60kg.
At the end of time I take it back to the studio to record the final process of sickness to death as how this sculpture is about to die, then took it back out side until nothing is left but rock.
The St. Louis Regional Freightway, Plaquemines Port Harbor & Terminal District and four ports in the St. Louis region entered into a Memorandum of Understanding on March 27 to establish and grow an alliance to generate new business by promoting international and inland trade routes at strategic locations along the Mississippi River.
The Buffer tool, a geoprocessing tool in the Analysis toolbox in ArcToolbox, generates buffer polygons, or offsets, around input features at a specified distance. Buffers show the area that is within some distance of the input features. The tool is popular because the concept of buffering is easy to understand and buffering plays an important role in many geoprocessing workflows involving proximity or distance analysis (i.e., How far away are these things? or What features are within a distance of other features?). Because the Buffer tool is important in performing proximity tasks, a key goal for developers working on this tool has been to ensure that buffers accurately depict distances around features.
